Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1575

Chapter 1575: Chapter 1570: Backing

To destroy Yan, she was determined to do it!

And when Xiao Rongyan picked her up in front of everyone, Bai Qingyan understood... Xiao Rongyan had abandoned the Yan Kingdom.

From now on, Xiao Rongyan was her husband, no longer the Regent Prince of Yan.

She had no more concerns.

Xiao Rongyan... was pretending to be the Regent Prince of Yan for Zhou’s interests, wasn’t he!

"Master!" The Hidden Guard from the Weisu Faction approached, handing Bai Qingyan the letter Bai Jintong had entrusted to him, "This is from Lord Weisu for the master!"

Bai Qingyan reached out to take it, unsure if it was due to exerting too much force today, her fingers were trembling with soreness. Seeing Bai Jintong’s blood-written letter, she finally understood why the King of Xiping suddenly made a move.

It turned out... it wasn’t just because Zhou was now strong and would inevitably win the bet on the nation’s future, but because the news that Murong Yan was the emperor of Zhou had come from the mouth of Empress Dowager of Yan, Xiao Rongyan’s trusted sister-in-law. Knowing that Xiao Rongyan had married her and had two children, those vassal kings believed their Regent Prince would surely hand Zhou over to her and their children.

Bai Qingyan put away Bai Jinzhi’s blood-written letter, and said to the Hidden Guard, "Quickly go back and tell Weisu to protect the Third Young Lady. If chaos erupts in Yan, all Hidden Guards and the Dong family’s warriors must, at all costs, rescue the Third Young Lady and the Emperor of Yan!"

Xiao Rongyan looked down at Bai Qingyan, knowing that Bai Qingyan had decided to unify Yan by force.

Xiao Rongyan was well aware of Yan’s weaknesses, with the vassal kings being the greatest threat...

It seemed now that there was no better way than military unification to decisively resolve the problem of Yan’s vassal kings.

"Yes!" The Hidden Guard departed promptly, leaping onto his horse.

The soldiers from the mountain had all come down, and reinforcements were helping the wounded back to the ranks.

"Return to Shequ!" Bai Qingyan ordered.

Bai Jinzhi stepped forward upon hearing this, looking up at Bai Qingyan on horseback, and said, "Eldest Young Lady... I want to check on Lu Yuanpeng first. Lu Yuanpeng took several arrows to protect me. I still don’t know how he’s doing. Once I confirm Lu Yuanpeng is safe, I’ll go to Shequ City to find you! Also, fearing we were shorthanded, I previously sent people to the other four cities to gather troops. I estimate they will arrive shortly, and then I’ll lead the armies of the four cities to Shequ together."

Seeing Bai Jinzhi’s worried expression, Bai Qingyan nodded, "Alright... take more people with you and be careful."

Liu Pinggao saluted Bai Jinzhi and then swiftly mounted his horse, shouting, "Set off back to Shequ!"

On the way back, Xiao Rongyan did not ride fast, afraid of jostling Bai Qingyan.

"Take a nap!" Xiao Rongyan whispered to Bai Qingyan.

"A Yan... I’m going to let you down." She whispered back to Xiao Rongyan with her eyes closed.

"There’s nothing to be sorry about. Unifying the world is our lifelong wish, whether it’s Yan unifying Zhou or Zhou unifying Yan, in the end, it must be unified. It seems now... Yan has more issues!" Xiao Rongyan’s hand tightened on the reins, encircling Bai Qingyan, "Martial unification of Yan will solve these problems and bring true peace to the people."

Now, the royal vassals of Yan had reached the point of killing the Regent Prince and attempting to kill the Emperor of Zhou. The next step was to depose the Emperor and overthrow the new regime of Yan to restore the old order!

Doctor Hong stroked his beard, thinking that when he goes to meet the King of Zhen in the afterlife, he must have a good chat with him about participating in both the war against Xiliang and the war against Yan, witnessing the unification of the world with his own eyes.

"Send this letter back to the King of Zhen, the King of Protector, and the King of Support. Since the Yan Kingdom doesn’t appreciate kindness and insists on waging war, then don’t blame Zhou for using strong soldiers to seize the nation and achieving world unification ahead of time!" Bai Qingyan pushed the letter forward; inside was Bai Qingyan’s order for troops, "Inform the princes to press heavily with troops, aim for a quick victory, and advance with divided forces... Ensure this battle annihilates Yan!"

"Yes!" The young general stepped forward, took Bai Qingyan’s letter, and left the upper room to send it back to Zhou on horseback.

"All generals, prepare to depart. As soon as the King of Loyalty arrives tomorrow, we’ll set out immediately to catch the Xiping army off guard!" Bai Qingyan ordered.

"Yes!"

The generals gradually exited the upper room, saluted Doctor Hong, and then left.

Before Doctor Hong entered, Bai Qingyan called Wei Zhong inside and handed him a letter, "Send someone to Dongyi and give it to the Young Emperor of Dongyi!"

In the letter, Bai Qingyan told Tuoba Yao that if he could gain full control over the entire court, then with Zhou attacking Yan and Yan fully confronting Zhou, the Dongyi Kingdom could advance south into Yan. Xiao Ruohai and Shen Qingzhu, staying in Dongyi, could lend a hand to the Dongyi Kingdom.

If Tuoba Yao couldn’t fully control the court, creating a big show with little effect along the coast would still be a show of strength for Zhou.

Once Bai Qingyan settled down, Doctor Hong finally entered with Yingshuang...

Seeing that Bai Qingyan’s clothes, which had yet to be changed, were drenched in blood, Doctor Hong’s pupils contracted suddenly.
